I don't like the Clash's version of I Fought The Law, I always prefered the Dead Kennedys one. But neither better the original.
Sid doin' My Way! Hell yeh, that's some dope dope shit dude. Jane's Addiction did a pretty decent version of Sympathy For The Devil (unlike Guns N' Roses). A few I dig:

MOTORHEAD - Motorhead
SEPULTURA - The Hunt, Symptom Of The Universe & their version of Orgasmatron
NAILBOMB - Exploitation
NEIL YOUNG - Oh Lonesome Me
JUICY LUCY - Willie The Pimp
DEAD MOON - Milk Cow Blues
JIMI HENDRIX - All Along The Watchtower

Pretty much anything the Cramps re-work or cover is equal to or better than the original. Nick Cave's covers of The Singer and Wanted Man are fuckin' down aswell.
There's a bunch of shit I can't think of right now (a whole lot of 60s R&B should be on there but meh my brains slow this morning)
.... might come back to this one.
